My Philosophy and Approach to Wellness...

My goal in family medicine is to provide private primary care focused on the individual patient. As a private primary care doctor, I use science, technology, and emotional intelligence to create a therapeutic environment focused on treatment of acute illnesses, optimal management of chronic conditions and finding prevention strategies that work for each patient. My MDVIP-affiliated practice offers services, including comprehensive, advanced health screenings and diagnostic tests, that go far beyond those found in concierge medicine practices.  

I am on staff at Northern Westchester Hospital Center and Hudson Valley Hospital Center. With my new office conveniently located in Yorktown Heights less than 2 miles off the Taconic Parkway, I am able to serve the communities of Northern Westchester County (Yorktown Heights, Chappaqua, Armonk, Bedford, North Salem, Pound Ridge, Somers and Croton-on-Hudson) and Putnam County (Garrison, Cold Spring and Mahopac.) 

My certification in Age Management Medicine has given me the opportunity to study nutrition and exercise - two areas in which I have particular interest. As a private doctor, I enjoy partnering with my patients and guiding them in a joint endeavor for better health. I am fluent in Spanish and German.

Dr. Gottesfeld has been my doctor for more than 30 years. I was having some medical issues that went undiagnosed by my doctor at that time.

from Emmanuella in NY March 1, 2018 for Peter M. Gottesfeld, MD

My husband and I became Dr. Gottesfeld's patients immediately after settling in North Salem., Being newcomers, who imigrated from Europe, we were, naturally, worried as we immigrated in our mid life term.
Dr.Gottesfeld exceeded any previous experience we had; be it in Europe or Israel, where I came from. He is most knowledgable, compassionate, hard working and devoted. I did not… See more

from William in NY February 27, 2018 for Peter M. Gottesfeld, MD

While I believe many people feel anxious, or the visit to be a burden.
I find it relaxing, almost like a social visit.
This is because of the great confidence I have in Dr. Gottesfeld and his staff.
He and his staff are always very welcoming and personable.
Thank you Dr. Gottesfeld and your staff.
Bill

from Suzanne in NY February 26, 2018 for Peter M. Gottesfeld, MD

The Saturday before Christmas my 21 year old daughter came down with what ended up being a severe kidney infection. Thinking it was the flu I called Dr Gottesfelds office and was patched immediately to his cell phone.
Long story short, Dr G spent the rest of the afternoon speaking to me and texting me back and forth through our 6+ hour visit to the er. At one point he even said, cell… See more

from Patricia in NY July 22, 2016 for Peter M. Gottesfeld, MD

I am a woman who came to Dr. Gottesfeld with so many things wrong with me. It has been an up hill battle for him. I get very frightened and worked up about so many things and he has been kind, generous with his time and truly there for me. I'm embarrassed to rely on him so much, but, I think his change to MDVIP has changed his outlook on practicing medicine. Today's Dr.'s are… See more

from Richard in NY March 5, 2016 for Peter M. Gottesfeld, MD

Basically we have loved working with Dr. Gottesfeld for over the past twenty years and would have remained with him as long as he stayed in practice. The wellness assessment was very interesting and helpful, but fortunately I have not required medical services much in my life thus far to truly warrant this level of medical availability.
